Ordered a 2017 Style Selection Hybrid

[GimpArm]

I just ordered my first Yaris, a 2017 Style Selection Hybrid in metallic blue. I got it with every option available except the panoramic roof. It is supposed to arrive on August 18 and I'm pretty excited. This will be my first Toyota and first hybrid I've owned, although my parents are on their 2nd Prius now so I'm not completely foreign to them.

Right now my biggest concern is with the Touch & Go system. I'm a little disappointed that Toyota isn't going with the Apple or Android car systems but I got the car anyways since the rest of the specs fit what I'm looking for. Is there much 3rd party modification of the system? Or any projects to use something like a Raspberry Pi as a gateway? What about simple things like disabling that stupid agree screen for navigation?

Welcome and congrats on the purchase!

Wish I could be more help with your questions, but I drive an '07 with an aftermarket head unit and none of the newer interior tech. Hopefully others will chime in.

Looking fwd to some pics and additional feedback when you take delivery.

can you see if they have LHD black trim interior pieces ie the squishy trim, looking to buy so can retrofit for my 2015

give me a price and shipping also you can really become a serious player for us USA folks if your looking to get some europarts over here for us to retrofit let us know.

those colorered interior pieces are <3

Are you guys removing the battery or leaving it hooked up in the car with the tender attached?

Are you guys removing the battery or leaving it hooked up in the car with the tender attached?Leave connected. Works for keeping acc on so the battery doesn't drain while testing amps and stuffs.

Just don't start the car, or the alternator will send large current to you charger/tender.
